STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • scoring instincts. Good finisher with either hand. Stands the contact well, can avoid the block and finish with a runner. Knows how to draw the foul. Can use strength advantage
  • creates shots for himself easily in many ways. Isolations, low post & off the pick and roll
  • well-coordinated, has a good balance. Strong upper body & solid frame and size
  • shows some playmaking ability. Capable passer from various spots on the court. Deals with double teams easily but court vision comes and goes when driving to the rim
  • amazing confidence level. Very competitive attitude
  • good handles and footwork. Changes dribble direction very well. Quick enough first step
  • demanding teammate. Has an ability to make others around him better
  • silhouette. Shoulders and upper back are hunched
  • bad-tempered in the past. Needs to work on controlling emotions
  • iso left side heavy
  • tends to overdribble and takes questionable shots. Got used to play with the ball a lot of time and transition to senior level was slower than expected
  • doesn’t play equally hard on defense. Especially if things don’t go right on the court
OUTLOOK
Musa was considered hoop phenom and since the very early age was gaining worldwide attention. For a long time Bosnian star was in the very close race with Luka Doncic to be a number one of 1999 generation in Europe. However the distance between them really got bigger over the last months. Undoubtedly Dzanan needs to work on his behaviour. He has a huge ego but even bigger talent and he is still lottery pick candidate.
